I have never seen that posted.

Driving on public roads and putting down a fast lap at a track are entirely different skills that just happen to use similar machines.

Tech question:
If you went camping with a buddy and passed out after a hard night of drinking and when you woke up you found a condom hanging out your ass, would you tell anybody?
No?
Great, anybody wanna go camping this weekend??

Second tech question:
My power windows stopped working after an ice storm...WTF???

'knowing how to drive' =/= 'being competent on a track' =/= 'stop-light-drag-racer' =/= 'I drifted in a parking lot today!' =/= 'I dusted a Corvette in the canyons! lol!'


But point taken. (Seriously @Tcoat it's not that far of a drive! Do it!)

If reposting gives me a 20 horse increase is it a good mod?
